So you thought access to hardware level video decoding on the iPad was impossible without jailbreaking, esp. for 1080p mkv files.

Think again!

Download:

It's Playing - $3.99

Copy the 1080p files into the app through iTunes.
Run the file in It's Playing.
Select Hardware Decoder.
It's very likely to play the file smoothly!
Also supports SMB file sharing.
Supports Gestures
Freestyle format resizing (yes...freestyle!)

1080p MKV, hardware decoding. Smooth as long as it meets the inbuilt mkv profiles. So far I've tried several mkv files (e.g. Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol, The Artist, The Descendents, Dangerous Method) all played smoothly. All encoded in h.264
